Five French developers — Darkworks, Kylotonn, Load, White Birds Productions, and Wizarbox, with the support of French engineering schools — recently announced they have united to establish the Play All consortium, which aims to secure the development of its own cross-platform toolchain standard.
The five companies will set up a common game technology company and technology center dedicated to housing the middleware project, and plan to assemble a team of more than 40 engineers over the next 2 years.
